    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    As If i couldn't hate FIFA enough. They held the last world cup in Qatar, where same-sex sexual activity is criminal offense with punishments including prison time (up to three years), and capital punishment. Now they made up some award up to give to Trump so they can kiss his ass...

    The Retail Apocalypse

    The HMV section was so half assed. The records were just thrown into bins completely unorganized. The store i was in some of the records were stacked on top of each other, the kid who stocked the bins didn't know or care that the records will get damaged that way. Not a smart way to store a...

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    That's the way it used to be here. Fast food joints hired mostly local teens, retired folks and new immigrants from all around the world. Now it's all TFW from India and mostly all men. New owners who took over the Subway near me, fired all the staff who were there for years and replaced...

    Return to office discussion

    We aren't soccer-obsessed because we have better sports to watch in North America. I tried watching soccer, the diving and flopping is just too much for me. Is it a sport or performance art?

    LCBO / The Beer Store

    Dougie is a conservative. wouldn't he be all for the free market private bottle/can redemption centers ? Like in the US and rest of Canada and every where else in the world? It would create a lot of jobs and even help the environment. I don't understand why the Beer Store has such...

    LCBO / The Beer Store

    In the US the deposit centers offer free pick up, your empties will be added to your account. My nephew does it in BC, all his empties he gets picked up goes into his account, its all cashless. He can check the app on his phone to see how much he has made off the bottle/can deposits.

    LCBO / The Beer Store

    The grocery stores in the US and rest of the modern world seem to manage just fine with bottle/can returns. Why is it just Ontario that can't do it? In B.C the small corner liquor stores take back empties, including non alcoholic cans and bottles. If they can do it, so can our LCBO's...

    I know. It's still a crime.

    TTC: Other Items (catch all)

    Ah that explains the non stop sirens i heard this afternoon. I was in the area today. Maybe instead of wasting millions on re-naming stations. They could spend that money on safety instead? Transit violence rising across Canada — in some cities by nearly 300% Exclusive data shows crime...

    Telecoms in Canada

    Rogers has by far the worst customer service I've ever encountered. Maybe tied for first with RBC. It took me 3 hours to cancel my moms Rogers cable! Actually it was more like three days. My mom tried for two days to cancel her cable, as she streams everything now. But Rogers predatory...

    Mayor Olivia Chow's Toronto

    Be careful out there! As of today "Mayor" Doug Ford has removed all speed cameras. Even though research from SickKids Hosptial, shows that cameras reduce speeding in school zones by 45%! Time to dust off the useless slowdown turtles and pray people don't drive like it's the 401...

    Toronto Union Pearson Express | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | MMM Group Limited

    I took the UPX in those early days, the prices were ridiculous, it was like $27 one way for a 25 min train ride!! I had the entire train to myself. What a stupid idea, catering to the expense account business travelers. Transit should be affordable to people on all incomes.

    Restaurant Comings & Goings

    And....... its closed. The faux east cost diner with out of touch menu prices, didn't even last a year. I guess i wasn't the only one who didn't want to pay $ 35 for fish and chips! Matty Matheson’s Bar Clams ‘permanently closed’ less than 12 months after opening...

    The era of the shoebox condo is over…. Really?

    We considered downsizing to a condo last year. But between the bad layouts, lack of sq-ft, horrible elevator wait times, and high prices. We gave up. The condos built before they became investment boxes, actually had good sizes kitchens and living spaces. We looked at a building built in...

    TTC: RapidTO Bathurst Street

    Yes! Bring a stopwatch and work out how much is added to the bus/streetcar journey by delivery vans and food delivery vehicles blocking the lanes and holding up traffic. I have been stuck on the streetcar on Queen more than a few times because those big white third party Amazon cargo...

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    it’s so refreshing to see someone win that isn’t just the lesser of two evils. congrats new york! . Hopefully our NDP is taking notes. This is how you win elections. The NDP don't listen, they lecture, they speak over valid concerns.
